About Unitarian Universalism

Unitarian Universalism welcomes people with diverse beliefs. We have members who believe in specific spiritual or religious teachings, as well as humanist and secular philosophies. Some who attend believe in a personal God, a transcendent God, no God at all, and those who simply say, "I don't know". In addition to holding different beliefs on spiritual topics, individual Unitarian Universalists may also identify with and draw inspiration from Atheism, Agnosticism, Buddhism, Christianity, Humanism, Judaism, Paganism, and other religious and philosophical traditions. Unitarians are bound together not by individual beliefs, but by supporting one another in our individual quests for truth and celebration of life, our common belief that we should strive for social justice and our common goal of working to make the world a better place here and now.

The speakers at the Sunday service at the Unitarian Universalist Church of Lawton consist of ministers and religious leaders from many traditions, university professors, psychologists, philosophers, Unitarian Universalist ministers, and many others. After our services, there is an open discussion session where the members of the congregation have the opportunity to pose questions to the speakers, to ask for clarification. This time is considered to be a time of community and learning.
